Paul's Use of Isaiah in Romans - A Comparative Study of Paul's Letter to the Romans and the Sibylline an Qumran Sectavian Texts

Shiu-Lun Shum studies Paul's use of the Isaianic tradition in Romans in comparison to those of the Jewish Sibyls and the Qumranites. The comparison helps to underscore the distinctive characteristics of the Apostle's use of this tradition. The author shows that Paul, along with the Sibyls and the Qumranites, expressed a deep concern about Israel's future in utilizing the Isaianic materials. Methodically, this study also exposes the precariousness of the notion of "intertextuality" in relation to biblical studies.
